Civil township - to state and in some cases even within a state. (In Illinois, for example, townships in the northern part of the state are active in providing public services, such as roads, whereas townships in southern Illinois frequently abandon these services in favor of the county.) Civil townships in these states are generally not considered to be incorporated, and nearby cities may annex land in adjoining townships with relative ease. In Michigan, townships can incorporate to effectively form cities, these are called "charter townships" and have the same powers as cities. Northeastern States In New England and New York, the principal form of local government is the town, although survey townships are used in unorganized portions of Maine. Residents of these states do not generally recognize the word "township" as applying to.
